Long Description The 2024 Brilliant Mistake Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of select Napa Valley vineyards, primarily from Oakville, Rutherford, and Pritchard Hill. Harvested at peak ripeness, each lot was fermented in stainless steel tanks for 16–20 days and aged for 20 months in French oak, 60% new. A wet winter, moderate spring, and warm summer produced small, concentrated berries with intense fruit character, refined tannins, and exceptional balance. The result is a powerful yet elegant Cabernet Sauvignon that is drinking beautifully now and built to age. Tasting Notes Dense and deep in the glass, the nose unfurls with aromas of dark cherry, cassis and blackcurrant at the core, wrapped in warm spice, and dried herbs. Intense and beautifully structured, it balances silky yet firm tannins with a palate of vibrant black cherry and current notes, accented by sage, cigar box and spice. The finish is long and unhurried, with the depth and balance to cellar for 15+ years. Brand Family Story john and stacy come from significantly different backgrounds, but it was the spark of similar interests that led to one shared dream. brilliant mistake wines is the result of that dream. john's artistic background fueled rebelliousness, off the wall, free-thinking, and no-holds-bar risk-taking. stacy's strength and judgement inspired him and provided the foundation to support each and every risk. with the benefit of two individuals taking risks together, they have produced and bottled what may just be the perfect representation of who they are, and what can be expected of them in their positively unpredictable future.
